    Might be a good spot to get your hair cut, but I wouldn't know. Apparently it's walk in only so I…read moremade an hour drive to get my cut, only to figure out that they do not close at 5:30 but instead at 5pm. I showed up at 5:09 and understand they don't want people coming in last second but it is misleading and annoying that no one could fit me in so they can leave by 5:30. Just say you close at 5! I don't write reviews usually and don't like to have a negative attitude towards people but I definitely won't be coming back and was annoyed by this whole experience. SMH

    I divorced my wife10 years ago, the unfortunate thing about that divorce is she was a hairstylist…read moreand besides losing a house I lost my stylist. I have moved a few times since then and always start looking for a new replacement (barber). I am in the process of moving to the area and stopped by John's, the poor reviews are very old, go by the recent reviews. I got a great haircut at a reasonable price. I plan to go back next time and hope to add positive comments to the review. The clientele was mixed, seniors, youngsters, and new and repeat customers, Tuesday morning and they were busy. Walk-ins (Me included) didn't have much of a wait and with 4 barbers working they kept it moving along with a lot of homey conversation. Old school shop with a modern, clean layout. Great staff, clean and plenty of parking. Give'm a try!

    I've been taking my son here since the beginning of the year and I'm. Rry pleased with the way they…read morehandle their appointments as well as their service. It's super convenient to male an appointment or change it. Card is on file so it's easy to pay as well. My son likes his haircuts and he gets to have a root beer if he wants. The place is nice and clean inside. Stylists really take care of their stations and their clients. I'll be taking my son back here as a steady customer for sure.

    I booked an appointment at Gambuzza's of Cedar Park, Texas for 2 pm on 4/25/2026. My drive is 35…read moremiles to the appointment. On my way a car accident happened right in front of me. I stopped and when I was sure everyone was ok I jumped back in my truck on my way to my appointment. My GPS said I was running 12 minutes past my appointment time so I decided to call Gambuzza's to let them know of my delay. I was greeted on the phone by Haily who quickly informed me that if it's over 10 minutes, my appointment would be cancelled. Being 25 miles into the drive, I told her that I would do my best to be there by 2:10pm. This upset me as I just drove 25 miles and called to notify of the delay. I wanted to cancel right then but really needed my haircut. I did my best and arrived in the parking lot at 2:12pm and immediately got a call from Hailey that my appointment was cancelled. This upset me as I told her I was in the parking lot. She couldn't care less. For me, being a returning customer who has waited long after my appointment time, on the barbers to be available, this was very disappointing. Hailey lacked courtesy and proper customer service. Was there no way to accommodate me? So I got to drive another 35 miles home. I drove 70 miles and didn't get a haircut and was shown no grace. I let Haily know that I wouldn't be back to visit her location. So I am writing you to let you know that I will never visit any Gambuzza's locations ever again. That she caused you to lose a returning customer. And that your policy should have some sort of grace period. There are a plethora of Barbers in the Austin area and now someone else will get my business.

    Great head shave for a great price! I've been in search of a good place for months now. Even though…read morethis is a bit of a drive for me, it's totally worth it. The place is nothing glamorous. Just a place to cut your hair, chat a bit and leave. But that's totally okay with me! I wish i got the name of the person that cut my hair but I hope next time I'm there he's there. Cash only so I know that for next time!

    Harold the barber and his son who is in training. Very unprofessional. His son was 30 minutes late…read morefor an appointment. Once it's time for said appointment the son (in training) nor the "owner" express any apologies for the wait. In fact Harold the barber/owner has an attitude that I even brought up the fact we were waiting. Harold was putting his hands up telling me he is respectful to his other customers. No Harold, you were rude. You know these places cancel appointments for even being 5-10 minutes late. We are at the appointment 10 minutes early and still waited 30 minutes past the appointment time. During the appointment no one is speaking at all. At the conclusion of the appointment he did not provide my son a lollipop and reported having no more although my nephews who had appointments 30 minutes prior both had lollipops and reported seeing a drawer full. That is how Harold the barber and his son treat CHILDREN when they are upset with adults. Harold reported his son being "in training and learning", however, good customer service is explaining the issue in advance and expressing your gratitude for being patient and still waiting. Terrible, terrible terrible. Also the son "in training" costs the same amount as a skilled barber...interesting. They sped off in their fancy cars and didn't look back at the conclusion of the late appointment. No bueno Harold Sr ad Jr no bueno. Also the haircut was not good at all.
